What Are Earseeds?
Self-Care At-Home Applications
​
There are over 200 points on the ear that coordinate with different parts or organs in the body! It's similar to reflexology, but it's called Auriculotherapy. Earseeds are tiny seeds or pellets attached to adhesive that get placed on specific points on the ear to treat a variety of conditions. They can be used to treat anything from acute or chronic pain to stress/anxiety, insomnia, appetite control, back pain, headaches, addiction, allergies--you name it!
​
As a Doctor of Chinese Medicine we can work together to help you find the right protocols, as well as the right type of seed for you or your loved ones: including children!
​
The "seeds" come in a variety of looks to suit any budget or style. The traditional vaccaria seeds use tan adhesive tape and an actual seed from the vaccaria plant. Stainless steel or 24k gold are understated and less visible, while Swarovski Crystal embellishment upgrades are also available.
​
During the quarantine we can set up a brief virtual session (20min for $20) and I can help you find proper placement for the seeds. Or, when we are back in the clinic together--I will be able to add seeds at the end of your Acupuncture or Massage session to help with pain or stress, or we can book an in-person session dedicated just to Earseeds. I am also able to consult about them virtually by sending you some, along with an individualized protocol, or you can check out the available kits and shop on your own here: Earseed Condition Kits.

I have been posting about this on social media if you want to see some videos about earseeds:
